I doubt they know enough about websites to have requested that

I considered this, but it doesn't really matter, does it?
SOMEONE thought this was a good idea, and if THEY'RE dumb enough to
have implemented this in the first place then there's probably no

If you complain to the website owner the chances are that they're just
going to back to the website "designer" and ask him to explain it to
them, and he'll explain it to them in a way that rationalises his
original decision to foul with right-clicking.
Of course there is the possibility that if the company receives loads
of complaints then they'll do something about it, or that the graphic
designer has moved on now, or the website owner has recently employed
someone internally who is more technically literate & who will be more
sympathetic to these complaints, but chances are that bitching about
it won't make any difference.
